rec.sport.football: Rethink the Cool + the Shoe
phil knight had a dream. he'd sell shoes. he'd sell dreams.
he'd get rich. he'd use sweatshops if he had to.
then along came a new shoe. plain. simple. cheap. fair.
designed for only one thing: kicking phil's ass.
the unswoosher

For years, Nike was the undisputed champion of logo culture,
its swoosh an instant symbol of global cool.
Today, Phil Knight's Nike is a fading empire, badly hurt by
years of "brand damage" as activists and culture jammers
fought back against mindfuck marketing and dirty sweatshop labor.
Now a final challenge. We take on Phil at his own game - and win.
We turn the shoes we wear into a counterbranding game. The swoosh
versus the anti-swoosh. Which side are you on?
Adbusters has been doing R&D for more than a year, and guess what?
Making a shoe - a good shoe - isn't exactly rocket science.
With a network of supporters, we're getting ready to launch the
blackSpot sneaker, the world's first grassroots anti-brand.
You can help launch the blackSpot revolution.
THE BIG QUESTION:
Is it possible to take Phil Knight's billion-dollar
marketing momentum and, in a quick judo-like move, slap
him onto the mat with the power of his own PR thrust?

Systematically Eliminating Potential variables
Assalam u?Alekum all :) When I was in Pakistan a few months back, a man
named Ahson Aziz tried his best to take me to some camp in Kashmir, I
personally did not know who this man was, but he made my dad call me to
ask me to come with him to "Kashmir camps" well I did not go, but today
the later events have proved that if I had gone there I would been
sitting in Jail or probably would be called terrorist, this is called
creating terrorist from nothing. That man I think works for "some"
secret service, he was not very happy about me not listening to him. I
personally think that such people should be caught and brought to
justice but they never are one must ask why? Why arent? they caught and
brought to justice?
Many Muslims think that the solution for Kashmir and other places like
that can be sort in the way things are happening now. No you people are
wrong, these places are in place to remove potential variables from
society. You see if those bad guys who control the world today really
wanted peace these things would have been resolved long ago Besides most
of these organisation are in control of secret services, it can be
clearly seen when on politician or army official wants to take over
things become active (like Kargil issue), but then later nothing
happens. (Grenade attack shatters Kashmir peace what Kind of Grenade can
shatter peace when decades of rape and inhuman murder of innocent by
Army did not do much in Israel and other places till today.
One must ask why these things have been created, to eliminate the
potential variables, today most of the Muslims are mice they can be
controlled using indirect information and events, perhaps because they
never really obeyed God, but those who wouldn?t mind giving their life
to bring justice
